Also, before the advent of the printing press and the first dictionaries, the English language was not standardized. Therefore, spelling variations were common, even among the names of the most literate people. Known variations of the Rosindale family name include Rosindale, Rosendale, Rosedale, Rosedell, Rosdell and many more.
